Shae Butter uses in Hand and Body Lotions

By Dandee Man Jr.

The healing and moisturizing power of the Shea butter is truly amazing.Shea butter is organic, and naturally non-toxic, and is even used when cooking. Applying lotions that contain Shea butter are known to make the skin look and feel younger.

Shae butter lotion acts as a natural skin rejuvinating product, and is completely safe to use even on babies, people with skin conditions such as cracked skin, wounds, ulcers, extra dry skin, dermatitis, and eczema. Shae butter can also be used to help with stretch marks because of the way it restructures the skin.

Some other amazing ways to use shae butter is as a daily soap, or in the bath tub. Shae butter has also been known to sooth aching muscles. Dont be suprised when you see shae butter as a key ingredient in anit-aging cream formulas.These Shae butter lotions are usually expensive, however shae butter can be duplicated or made at home for less.

Most Shea butters that you are able to buy now has been refined. The refining process removes the natural scent and color but in the process of refining it many of its effective ingredients are removed. Refine Shea butter has been bleached, deodorized, and heated to almost 400. Sadly all this refining has removed most of the healing values, making it worth a fraction of what it should be.

So keep that in mind when buying shae butter lotion unless you know the butter is unrefined or from West Africa. Who wants to buy shae butter that my be aesthetically appealing, yet lacks the true moisturizing, healing, nutritious properties of true traditional Shae butter?
